Founded by Edgar Cullman, Sr. in 1960, the company experienced incredible success with their Macanudo brand. After a series of acquisitions throughout the years that made General Cigars one of the largest cigar manufacturers in the world, the company merged with Scandinavian Tobacco Group (STG) in 2010.

Cigar Wrapper

Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade

The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.Ecuador is the perfect place to grow wrappers, because it is located on the Equator! And it has rich soils too. The weather conditions, with a nearly permanent cloudy sky, provide a natural shade, protecting the wrapper plants from sunshine and allowing the tobacco to grow thin and light. This climate allows tobacco growers to grow Connecticut-seed wrapper in the shade without shade cloths, resulting in more economical wrapper.

Cigar Binder

Nicaragua

The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.

Cigar Filler

Nicaragua

Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
